    Hello Everyone ,

    I am new to SEO , so pls help me regarding this question.

    How could i know that a forum is a dofollow forum or nofollow forum.

    I have installed a nodofollow plugin.

    In the forum the user names are showing RED in color and signature links are showing BLUE in color , so what does it mean ?

    is it a dofollow forum or not ?

    if both user names and siglinks are showing BLUE in color, then what does it mean ?

    What if the sig link is showing RED in color ?

    pls help me

    Thanks.

    I used to SEOQuake to check for dofollow or nofollow sites. The nofollow have a strike through line in the word while the dofollow doesn't have one. I also used the nofollow plug-in for firefox. The red color would be nofollow and dofollow for blue. :)

    It is a dofollow forum, i think. Try using the add on search status. It won't make any confusion. It will highlight no follow links.

    A client gave me forum posting work , he want me to do posting in dofollow forums.

    So i have registered in 2 forums and in 1 forum the user names are showing RED color and sig links are showing BLUE color.

    and the other forum both user name and sig links are showing BLUE in color.

    So that is where i am confused.
